Westchester area?

[jgvergo]

I also have rock that has been cycled and seeded with pods. LMK if you would like some. I'm in Peekskill.

 

[nanchil]

Definitely... As I am in Mohegan Lake, I could stop by whenever you are free .... Thanks again...

 

[jgvergo]

Full disclosure...I have a few aptasia too.

 

[nanchil]

Sure.

Well I guess my advice would be to start with sand from a tank where there are no known pests. That was my 40 gallon at one time - no idea how the aiptasia got in. I kill them with Kalk paste which works but occasionally I still see a few. I have a few small space pieces of live rock that are in a frag tank that should be clean of aiptasia and I'm happy to offer you a few pieces. They are small though. Let me know.

 

[nanchil]

Thanks again. I would take up on your advice & offer. Please let me know when I can pick it up. Thanks everyone !

 

[jgvergo]

I'm actually thinking of letting my aptasia spread so I can support a Copperband Butterfly

 

[nanchil]

That's a positive thinking ....

 

[Tyreef2016]

As long as he eats them. Mine won’t touch them.

Hmmmm, that's a risk!

 

[Tyreef2016]

That's a positive thinking ....

Congrats on your 525xl btw! Loving mine. Maybe one day we can trade some frags.

 

[nanchil]

Thanks ... Did anyone feel the earthquake this morning ? Hope everyone's tank is OK ...

@nanchil I am pretty sure I have some chaeto that you are welcome to come pick up. It is seeded with tons of crustations/copapods from a mature reef tank. Yes I too have the occasional aptasia and after 20 years of reef keeping I can tell you there is no such thing as pest free. Best you can do is keep pest populations down and to a min. But yeah I dip everything incoming no matter how big or how small. PM me if you would like to set up a time/day to come by and leave me your number so i can text you back.

Hi everyone! I'm from Westchester too! I am interested in joining the club.

Hello Mike. Unfortunately the club has floundered a bit and no meet up have taken place in many many months. I’m in white plains. How about you? My tank is a Red Sea Reefer 250
